Chapter 219 Picking up treasures from the garbage heap
"Who told you that something happened to me? I'm fine. It's up to you to finish the announcement first and then worry about my affairs." Xu Jia said helplessly.
He consciously expected that when "Mulan" fell into Huayi's hands, it would arouse a lot of public opinion.
But he didn't expect that it could actually affect him.
It seems that my results are still not impressive enough to convince everyone.
In fact, this was because Xu Jia felt that his position was wrong.
Many people felt sorry for Xu Jia because compared with Di Shini, Xu Jia and Jiaxing had the opportunity to cooperate with others, but it was like smoke rising from their ancestral graves.
In fact, in Xu Jia's eyes, it was clear that he escaped from a big pit this time and kicked his opponent down by the way.
"It's okay. That guy Wang Lei is really not a thing. Fortunately, we have cooperated with them. If we hadn't spoken out in the first place, how could "Monster Hunt" have gotten their turn."
Yang Mi breathed a sigh of relief and turned to vent her anger on Wang Lei.
The latter stole two projects from Jiaxing, who was originally going to be the female lead in "Mulan".
Now that the project is in the hands of Huayi, it is naturally impossible.
"Some things must be there sometimes in life, but don't force them in life."
Xu Jia sighed with emotion. Hearing the resentment in Damimi's words, he might as well tell her the truth later.
Otherwise, I won’t even think about having a happy life.
"Why do I always feel like you are calm about this matter? It feels like you have everything under control." Yang Mi asked suspiciously.
She had this feeling in Burbank.
"Ahem, maybe it's because I have a normal mind. Otherwise, what else can I do if the project is taken away? Is there any use in crying and fighting? It's not like you haven't seen Disney's President Robert. Since he will Handing over the project to Wang Lei obviously completely abandoned us."
Xu Jialiao said a few words, and the sadness in his words immediately diverted Yang Mi's mind.
"That's good, keep this mentality."
Yang Mi didn't dare to continue talking, for fear of affecting Xu Jia again.
"By the way, although Disney's road is blocked, we have resumed negotiations on Warner's side."
"Uh-huh?"
The good news that Xu Jia dropped not only drew Yang Mi's attention away, but also completely suppressed the latter.
Doesn't this mean that she has regained her female lead.
"The project will be set in China. I plan to put the crew in the Magic City branch. Such a project is needed there to unite people. In half a month, Lorenzo will bring director Joe Deterduba and male lead Jay When Sunstensen comes over, you must reserve time in advance to join the set, set makeup, and participate in the script reading." Xu Jia warned.
Little did he know that Yang Mi on the other end of the phone felt like her whole brain was in a state of mush.
She was ready to go to the United States to join the crew, but she didn't expect that Xu Jia would directly move the crew to China.
This is an unprecedented first among international co-production projects.
Especially in the context of the cowardly cooperation between Huayi and Disney, Xu Jia's strength is even more evident.
"But doesn't the behind-the-scenes team need a Hollywood professional team?" Yang Mi asked.
"That doesn't prevent them from coming to work in China. They're all used to it. If they're given enough money, no one will object, and they'll be brought to our territory so they can steal their lessons." Xu Jia said with a smile.
The main reason is that the project "The Meg" does not have such high requirements in all aspects.
Doing it in China will not only have no impact, but will even reduce a lot of costs.
"Okay, I will reserve time in advance. Do you want me to return to the capital now to cooperate with the promotion?"
Yang Mi asked, remembering Xu Jia's usual routine.
Xu Jia shook his head: "That's not necessary. With Huayi and Di Shini in front, we can make a fortune quietly."
Enter the village quietly, no need to shoot.
……
Subsequently.
Jiaxing and Warner announced their cooperation on their respective official websites.
This news, which should have stirred up waves with just one stone, seems tepid at the moment.
Outsiders didn't care about "The Meg" at all, but insiders had known about this project for a long time, and not only did they lose their previous envy, but they also felt a bit of pity.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, what was originally a good "Mulan" has now turned into "The Meg". Jiaxing really made a wrong move."
"It's just one wrong step. The most fearful thing is to make a wrong step. If you ask me, Xu Jia went to Warner Bros. to start this project just to fight with Huayi."
"Isn't that right? Let me tell you something interesting. The copyright of this project first fell into the hands of Disney. They didn't do it. That means Disney was not optimistic about this project from the beginning. Jiaxing got it from the garbage heap. Pick up rags and treat them as treasures."
All kinds of weird comments came out.
Everyone has only one common understanding, that is, Xu Jia will die and Jiaxing will go downhill.
The entertainment industry has always been a place of flattery and contempt for others.
As high as you can lift people up, you can put people down as low as you can.
But no one thought that Xu Jia went around in circles for the sake of "The Meg".
dong dong.
Miao Yuqing poked her head in: "Mr. Xu, the notice has been sent out and the response is average. Do you need to increase publicity?"
"No, the first priority right now is to prepare the crew first, and put the promotion on hold for now."
Xu Jia shook his head quickly. He had finally used "Mulan" to start his own project without anyone noticing. How could anyone pay attention to it again?
"The representative of Goryeo CJ Entertainment sent a message. Director Bong Joon-ho is outside. Do you want to meet him?"
"Here? Then bring it over."
Xu Jia slapped his forehead. If Miao Yuqing didn't remind him, he would have almost forgotten about it.
Not long after.
A middle-aged man was led into the office.
With curly hair and rimless eyes, this man is considered one of the top directors in Korea.
Logically speaking, this guy should not be short of investment.
However, the realistic and sensitive subject matter of "Parasite" made many companies waver.
Of course, another reason is that the script has not been finalized.
"Mr. Xu, I wonder what you want from me?" Feng Junhao asked in confusion.
He was called all the way from Goryeo to the capital by CJ Entertainment, but he was also confused.
"I'm interested in a book you have, "Parasite", and I hope I can buy it and make it." Xu Jia said straight to the point.
"You're talking about "Decalcomanie", I didn't expect this to reach you, but the name "Parasite" is also very appropriate."
Bong Joon-ho did not doubt where Xu Jia got the information, and mused: "It's not that I don't want to sell you. At present, I only have the outline in hand, and the script has not been written yet, and I plan to produce it myself."
"Decalcomanie" is the original name of "Parasite". In the previous life, the script was not officially written until 17.
